    My question to you all is: Do you believe psychic powers really exist?

    I, personally, do. I can heal people. Take that however you will; Call me a psycho, brush it off, do whatever. But I know what I know.

    Unless you can heal with your mind, I doubt that's considered psychic.

    This may be a series of odd coincidences, but I can accurately predict what number someone is thinking, i.e. 1~5, and occasionally have dreams foreshadowing what lies in tomorrow. I've always found this a bit strange...o.o;

    In the end, I suppose I believe in it, although I can't seem to find concrete evidence for support. ._.

    I'm still skeptical; I mostly want to excuse it as pure coincidence, which would be the logical choice.
     
    Yes, Lily, that's what I meant. They have to be either touching me or near me though; I don't know how to over long distances yet. Still trying. ^_^
     
    Following standard and complex logic...most likley no...

    I say most likley because if you could we haven't yet...so yeah its more than likley improbable.
     
    I believe in, as you call them, 'psychic powers'. I have had a few experiences which I would define as almost 'psychic' myself, though I can't really discuss them in great length here...

    So, yes, I firmly believe in the paranormal, the supernatural, and the like(having had encounters with such things myself), and people having connections with them, though there are of course many who try to fake such events. >_> I guess the question is, then, how we should sort out the truthful from the liars....

    How can you call something a premonition...couldn't it be just an instinct...I guess the question I wanna ask you is...Are you able to recall your dreams clearly? Because what you have expirenced could be like Deja-Vu...only your dreaming not awake. You see the event after you have dreamt it but for some reason you had seen it before.

    Ahhh just ignore me...I know what I wanna say but I have a feeling its coming out all confusing.
     
    I constantly get Deja Vu... I feel and sense quite a bit... I've seen ghosts and other entities when I was younger... And oddly enough, I can usually control my Game Boy, mostly Pokemon, when pumped up in critical situations. I can concentrate hard and keep an attack from fainting a Pokemon, have them wake up, have one captured... Other games I can usually sense when a boss is near death, even if I never fought it before and it has no low-health super attacks...

    I've known others as well, mostly through the internet. I've also been visited in a dream once by a strange entity, one of the few dreams I remember quite clearly (other than childhood nightmares >.X).

    I believe some of kinesis, witchcraft, demons, extra-terrestial activity, and much more, though I know majority of it is faked for fame, fortune, and press. Take what you want. *shrug*
     
    I do not believe in psychic powers. If you can "heal" someone, the person is probably healing him/herself. The mind is a powerful thing, but it has its limits.
     
    I could discuss paranormal things like this all day, but suffice it to say....yes. I absolutely do believe in psychic abilities.
     
    Yes, I do believe in psychic powers. I believe that people can see the future in their dreams and stuff like that, but like healing people and moving objects, I dont believe its a phychic power, just a coincidince.

    I believe I have a fairly useless psychic power. If I have watched a TV show before, I know the episode that comes on later that day. It may just be a coincidence, but it happens very often.
     
    There has to be something going on that no amount of technology can explain. I mean, its been said that as-is humans don't use a large portion of their brains. Word has it, telepathy, tekonesis (forgot how to spell it) were all traits of Adam and Eve (perhaps part of the brain we don't use). If you recall, they were both able to talk to animals in the garden of ... (forgot what's called again). However, man has lost this ability over the years due to his growing ignorance towards the planet and mother nature.

    As for Dylan. I've read about your powers - can't quite remember what ithe official name for it is right now but you are only assissting that person in healing themselves by channeling essence or ki to certain parts of your body. I've actually got an ebook of how ANYONE on the planet could learn to do that. So, you're no special 'unique' wise but I would say you've got an up on most of this because you can do what you can.
     
    Yes, KQ, I know that it's possible for anyone to do it with the proper training, but I felt no need to go into any further details. I wanted to leave my post as simple as possible. I'm impressed you know of it, though. ^_^
     
    I see that. XD

    And it takes more than just reading an eBook, btw. You have to go to I think 2 classes (can't remember), and get attunements and stuff to do so.

    It's like riding a bike. Read all you want about how to ride a bike, but doing it is a whole other story. ^_^
     
    I sometimes have dreams that foreshadow the future, and once the event happens and I remember the dream I go into shock for about 15 seconds.
